This could be the weirdest breakdown of a slate we see all season. First off, FanDuel has opted to include the 6:40 PM White Sox and Tigers game on the MAIN slate. It’s good to see that they are willing to give us a large slate when it can mean that we get Alex Faedo as a pitching option, so thank you FanDuel. Secondly, here’s some of the other pitchers going today. Logan Webb is pitching, yes, in a night game. But, he’s not starting. Confused? Well, ole Gabe Kapler is thinking he needs to try this opener thing again with his best pitcher and lord have mercy I don’t think this is going to end well, but good luck with that Gabe. Kyle Hendricks is also pitching. He’s back. He’s at home. Alright, so it’s not that weird, just weird to me I guess, but we do have some new series starting up Phillies at Braves GIants at Brewers White Sox at Tigers WEATHER No issues, windy blowing in at Wrigley again. TOP ARM Logan Gilbert (DK: 9900, FD: 10.6k) Gilbert checks all the boxes we look for in a pitcher right now when facing the Oakland Athletics… He has a pulse. He has at least one working arm. He’s not known to wear women’s clothing when pitching. And he doesn’t have a hyphen in his name. Teams who have a pitcher with these qualifications are 41-10 on the season when facing Oakland. Put that into your spreadsheets and tell me that’s not a big enough sample size for a winner, it’s hitting over 80% of the time folks! SP2 OPTIONS Carlos Carrasco (DK: 7000, FD: 7500) Not many times you can sit here and justify using Carlos Carrasco. The expected chalk has to be Logan Webb with Logan Gilbert, but if Webb truly does come in after an opener I want no part of that. The weather will help Carrasco tonight as long as he doesn’t decide to walk 8 guys. JP Sears (DK: 7300) He’s not gonna win, this much we know, but he does have enough talent to pair together with Gilbert for a SP stack. FANDUEL ONLY Lucas Giolito TOP STACKS PHILLIES (Turner, Schwarber, Marsh, Bohm) Everyone and their brother should be on this one, and it’s hard to ignore it. I cannot imagine Trea Turner doesn’t go on a massive tear after…...
